Bonk: The Curious Coupling of Science and Sex | Mary Roach

pick

This was a fun little read. It‘s strange, hilarious, and cringeworthy at different times. This is more on the scientific level, but if you just need to find a way to be comfortable talking about sex and sexuality, this book will absolutely do that. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

GingerAntics All the variations on the word coitus made me think of Sheldon from Big Bang Theory, and (I think rather unintentionally) she broaches the topic of the effects of negative messaging about sex from religious organisations. #MaryRoach #Bonk #SexPositive2021 4y

I‘m not convinced this is a real word.

julesG Does it come with a definition? 4y

julesG Also, have to read this book. 4y

GingerAntics @julesG not really. It‘s sort of implied again. Just ones ability to orgasm, especially. Or maybe the human ability to? 4y

GingerAntics @julesG my only complaint thus far is that is perpetuates the myth that Victorian doctors‘ treatment of “pelvic massage‘ was meant to be sexual and that‘s why vibrators were invented. That got debunked in

Hooked_on_books I suspect this was not a successful incontinence cure 🤔 4y

GingerAntics @Hooked_on_books I would imagine not. I mean, I‘m sure the blood clotting and the swelling helped temporarily, but that couldn‘t have been comfortable or feel good at all. I can‘t imagine he found this to be worth it after everything was healed up. No word on if they got it reattached or not. 4y

Graywacke Is that the dedication? Great quote. 4y

GingerAntics @Graywacke no, this is actually toward the end of the intro (which she cheekily refers to as “Foreplay”). The dedication is “For Woody.” 4y

Graywacke @GingerAntics that‘s a good one too! 4y

I think we all knew this was coming eventually. I actually started this book at some point several years ago now (2014 or 2015ish I think). I got side tracked by school and life, but this is totally happening now.

TheBookHippie @GingerAntics right? Better get use to it it‘s a loooong season 🏃🏃🏃🏃 4y

GingerAntics @TheBookHippie ugh 😩 what enticed him to do cross country? Wouldn‘t he like a nice evening sport? 4y

TheBookHippie @GingerAntics he‘s run it since fourth grade 😂🥵🤷🏻‍♀️🏃 golf in the spring…. Also EARLY 😂🥱💤💤😩🤦🏻‍♀️ 4y

GingerAntics @TheBookHippie how do we get him into the evening sports? All those early mornings are not good for your health. 4y

TheBookHippie @GingerAntics I‘ve tried he likes singular sports 😂 damn introverts 😅 4y

GingerAntics @TheBookHippie fair enough. Introverts are night owls, too. 4y

TheBookHippie @GingerAntics I surely am 😂 night owl and introvert 🏆 4y

GingerAntics @TheBookHippie perhaps he would enjoy academic decathlon. It fits neatly into school hours. 4y

TheBookHippie @GingerAntics oh yes. He‘s an academic🤍 4y

GingerAntics @TheBookHippie it will certainly get him making connections between all of his classes and the outside world! 4y

This is an hilarious exploration of the strange lives of our bodies postmortem. Roach combines scientific information and makes funny comments to make the info go down easier. I read this with a group of Litsy friends who made comments throughout. It was interesting to see what others thought about the book. I look forward to reading another of her books and would recommend this book to those who love science.

perfectsinner Great book 5y

EadieB @perfectsinner I enjoyed it too! 5y

iread2much No worries! Have a safe move! 5y

@Kaila-ann Just received my book. Thanks for sending it Priority Mail. Little expensive but got here in 2 days!

Looks like a very interesting book!

suvata, iread2much, Hestapleton

Sleepswithbooks Great book! 5y

Kaila-ann Well if I could get it together and have it out on time then I wouldn‘t have to keep using priority 😉. My own fault. Glad it made it safely and I hope you enjoy it!! 5y

EadieB @Kaila-ann Next time don‘t worry about sending priority as I can‘t read it til next week anyway. I‘ll just read it whenever the book comes. I hate to see you spend so much when media mail would be $2.80 for this book. I don‘t care if the book is late. 5y

EadieB @Kaila-ann You‘re welcome! Take your time, no rush as I have plenty to read. 5y
